A year after the release of Come ON! Dig the Unified Theory!, The Alcazar Hotel returns with a double a-side 7-inch.
Billed as the band’s “new hit single,” the album is The Alcazar Hotel’s debut on Grip Tapes records, as well as the debut release from the recently launch label.

“This is the premiere release through Grip Tapes. Thank you and you’re welcome, Grip Tapes!,” Dawson joked. “I literally jumped off the stage, grabbed the guy by the collar and said, ‘Give me a hit record!’
“Afterward he was lubricated and said, ‘Yes, we’ll do the hit record.’ But I told him we had to be first.”
Dawson may be pulling our collective chains about the roots of his “hit record” deal, but what’s no joke is the seriousness by which he recorded the new 7-inch, as well as his albums before.
The tracks, “Suicide King” and “Stupid Feeling,” were recorded at The Lip in Oxford, Miss. while the band was on tour. And after returning to Chapel Hill, Dawson explains the band worked some “studio magic” before the final pressing.
“Suicide King” b/w “Stupid Feeling” is available in three uniquely different packages, each being limited to only 300 copies.
“We love comic books, and a lot of times with comic books, they have different covers — variants,” Dawson explained. “So we have three variant covers.”
For the three versions, Dawson asked Morphine‘s Dana Colley, the Squirrel Nut Zippers‘ Katharine Whalen and Lucky‘s Nathan Golub to each design original artwork.
